GETTING TO THE ISLAND

Colonsay is a small
Island off the west coast of Scotland. To get too it you have the option of a
ferry, plane or speed boat - sounds difficult but it is well worth it!

•CALMAC ferry - this is
the easiest way to get to the island and the one we expect most people to use.
The ferry runs from Oban (on the main land) to the Colonsay harbour. The best
ferries for the weekend are:

We are running the
festival at Machrines beach on the west side of the island, next to the airstrip. The site will
include the rugby pitch, a beautiful beach, the festival
marquees and basic toilets. The site is fairly isolated so that we can party late and be on a
beautiful beach!

You do not need a car on
the island. We
will transport you to the festival site from the harbour when you arrive and leave where there will be amenities,
including food & drink, toilets, camping site, pitches and marquees.
